Pic request: Strakes on Titanium Grey

Thinking about going the way of the strakes. Anyone have a pic of them on titanium grey? Did a search with titanium grey strakes and got nothing


If you're going to post "search better" fear my wrath, it's not even worth the +1 post count you'll get :D

wow, couldn't have asked for a better example, our cars our twins.

Except, i dont have strakes or the clear corners, both i was hoping to put on at the same time (Clears were already decided upon). Thanks man! Perfect.

If you go with the strakes, I would recommend the stainless steel ones.

They're being sold by a guy in UK. I had them shipped to CA and they were here within a week.

Great quality.

I'm thinking of taking the 200 bucks for strakes and putting it towards racing beat exhaust :D

They are a bit on the shiny side (not too bling) but they are just MUCH better quality then the aluminum pieces of junk that Mazda is selling.

Also, I got mine for LESS then what Mazda was asking.

I guess the aluminum ones weren't holding up very well in the rain so that's why he went and started making stainless steel ones.

Quite a few members have ordered them. The guy's name is Howard. I'll try and find a link for you...

You might also consider painted strakes as a lower cost alternative....

well voodoo did and his was the first i looked at and it had what you wanted
the reason there arent as many pics in there is because people keep posting them in threads instead of there. you could start a trend by posting your opics in the garage and then linking them in a thread for your obligatory "here's my car" thread.

do a sort by and sort by rating- all the top rated ones have pics

already did my "here's my car" thread, it said something like "n00b here" in the subject line if you're interested

The garage is a good idea, but more people need to know about it.

If you feature pictures on your website that are not of your product, you should clearly state that.
